WWE Superstar Bayley recently explained why she was ‘offended’ by Braun Strowman making his return to the company during WWE RAW this week.
Speaking on WWE The Bump, the former SmackDown Women’s Champion explained why she wasn’t happy with Strowman’s return.
“I’m actually a little offended because, as a tag team specialist myself, he ruined a perfectly good tag match” the Superstar noted.
Bayley on Braun Strowman
The comments were obviously in character from the leader of Damage CTRL, but there are likely a few Superstars backstage who are legitimately offended at Strowman’s return.
Braun joined the controversial Control Your Narrative project after leaving WWE, and many have been critical of the business choices of that company.
Strowman has also had a past of offending independent wrestling talent, so it’s clear why some might see the headline and think that Bayley was genuinely upset!
The ‘Monster Among Men’ is set to be presented as a babyface on the SmackDown brand going forward, so it’ll be interesting to see how the WWE audience gets behind the former Universal Champion.
